    Hey! Great video :) Could you possibly make videos about UCL's accommodation and freshers week? I've just gotten an offer from UCL for the 2019 entry and am still deciding whether to accept it to not. Thanks!

      I was just wondering if UCL's freshers week is all about clubbing and drinking as i dont drink at all (and i dont want to feel pressured during freshers weeks being forced to do whatever im not comfortable with)...
      Also if you dont mind, could you tell me which accom are you staying in? Your room looks pretty new and comfy. I'm looking at the garden halls. Have you heard anything about it?

    • @yuzhoutian850
      @yuzhoutian850  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Freshers week definitely isn't all about clubbing! Lots of societies make a huge effort to organise inclusive events. There are lots of opportunities to meet people especially in your department.
      This is St Pancras Way, a Unite accommodation run by UCL. Garden Halls is really nice, I have a few friends there. Its pretty close to uni too!

    I just received an offer for this September. What do you think about the mathematical content of the course? Is it enough for postgraduate study or technical roles? Do you have a lot of choice on courses? What are the future job prospects on the city and on roles like product management? Are those inexistent?
    I just realized the amount of questions. Sorryyyy, well, nice video!!!!

    Hi, I was wondering whether you took further maths at A-level? If I haven’t done further maths at A-level am I at that much of a disadvantage?
    Also do you have any advice for applying to UCL for economics, specifically with my personal statement; what books they like to see you have read and what kind of activities they might like?

    If you believe that there’s no God and that nothing made the universe. Then if God is no-thing and therefore is nothing. Then can’t the universe come from him?
    Also if you believe that the universe is infinite; then how is it that our bodies are part of the universe whilst our consciousness is also part of our bodies whilst our consciousness came into existence via our birth? This means that our consciousness is finite because it began, there for our bodies are finite and finally the universe MUST be finite...This is what Islam promotes...

    How did we win the election in the year 2000? We talked about a humble foreign policy: No nation-building; don't police the world. That's conservative, it's Republican, it's pro-American - it follows the founding fathers. And, besides, it follows the Constitution. -- Ron Paul

      Tbf might be true at graduate level and for the more theoretical side of economics, like theoretical game theory or general equilibrium models, but that's not what I'm talking about here, which is studying it as an undergrad. And most of the stuff you see is really just differentiation with simple algeb doesn't even matter what uni you're at because if you took a look at the textbooks , guess what genius, that's what's in them
      It's also absolutely hilarious how you're trying to suggest how the course at UCL is that much more mathematical because it requires an A* instead of an A, now go back to your A levels lol
